When a customer pays using a payment method with 3-D Secure enabled, in addition to providing their card details they also have to go through an additional authentication step validating that they are actually the cardholder. Depending on the bank and the payment method used, the process will have slight variations. For example, in a demo X-Cart 5 store using X-Payments 3.0.x, while paying with a VISA card via Authorize.Net with 3-D Secure enabled, we get redirected to the bank page for 3-D Secure payer authentication:

Please note that using 3-D Secure requires cardholder data to be stored temporarily by X-Payments. No worries about that - cardholder data is only needed while the transaction is in progress. X-Payments will not store CHD longer than is necessary and will remove the stored CHD for the transactions that have been finalized as often as every few minutes.

X-Payments allows you to use 3-D Secure Payer Authentication for a number of payment methods that support it. 3-D Secure provides an additional layer of security for payment transactions via your store by implementing Verified by Visa and MasterCard SecureCode.

Some payment solutions supported by X-Payments provide their own built-in integrated 3-D Secure authentication systems that can be used with X-Payments. Such solutions include:

  • PayPal's Payflow Pro;
  • Cardinal Commerce Centinel;
  • Elavon Payment Gateway;
  • Global Iris/HSBC - RealAuth Remote;
  • Realex;
  • Sage Pay Go - Direct Interface;
  • Worldpay Corporate Gateway - Direct Model.

For many other payment solutions it is possible to use the 3-D Secure authentication solution by CardinalCommerce (X-Payments provides an integrated module for this purpose). Solutions that can be used with 3-D Secure authentication by CardinalCommerce include:

  • PayPal Payments Pro;
  • Authorize.Net AIM, AIM XML and CIM;
  • Bean Stream, a Digital River Company/FirstData Canada;
  • Caledon;
  • CyberSource - SOAP toolkit API;
  • DIBS;
  • Digital River World Payments / Beanstream;
  • ECHO NVP;
  • eSELECTplus;
  • HeidelPay;
  • Netbilling - Direct Mode 3.1;
  • PSiGate XML API;
  • USA ePay - Transaction Gateway API;
  • WebXpress.

(More up-to-date information on the type of 3-D Secure system supported by specific payment gateways integrated with X-Payments can be found in the X-Payments:Supported payment gateways table.)

When a customer pays using a payment method with 3-D Secure enabled, in addition to providing their card details they also have to go through an additional authentication step validating that they are actually the cardholder. Depending on the bank and the payment method used, the process will have slight variations. For example, in a demo X-Cart 5 store using X-Payments 3.0.x, while paying with a VISA card via Authorize.Net with 3-D Secure enabled, we get redirected to the bank page for 3-D Secure payer authentication:

where we see the following form:

Please note that using 3-D Secure requires cardholder data to be stored temporarily by X-Payments. No worries about that - cardholder data is only needed while the transaction is in progress. X-Payments will not store CHD longer than is necessary and will remove the stored CHD for the transactions that have been finalized as often as every few minutes. So, before you start using 3-D Secure payer authentication with X-Payments, make sure that storage of cardholder data has been enabled in the General_settings section (Settings -> General settings). Also ensure that cardholder data encryption keys have been properly generated.

For payment gateways providing native (built-in) 3-D Secure, no further steps to configure 3-D Secure in X-Payments need to be taken: everything should work automatically as soon as you have properly configured the settings required for 3-D Secure in your account with the respective payment processing provider. To use 3-D Secure payer authentication solution by CardinalCommerce you will, however, need to sign up for the respective service with CardinalCommerce (CardinalCommerce can be contacted at xpayments@cardinalcommerce.com) and implement some further 3-D Secure related configuration in X-Payments. For instructions, see the appropriate section below:

Once you have everything configured to start using 3-D Secure, it is a good idea to run a couple of test transactions to make sure it works as expected. To run transactions through 3-D Secure in test mode, some preparation will be needed:

  1. Check with the documentation or customer service of your payment gateway what needs to be done to run transactions in test mode. Depending on the payment system, you may have to set up a separate testing account, or adjust some settings in your existing account. Make sure 3-D Secure is enabled for the account you will use for testing.
  2. In X-Payments, set your payment method to work in test mode. For some payment gateways this means that you will just need to switch the test/live setting on the respective 'Payment configuration details' page; for others, you will have to use a testing account (different from your production account), so the settings with your account access details will need to be changed as well.
  3. Check with the documentation or customer service of your payment gateway whether you will need to use any test mode specific data for your test transactions. For example, some payment gateways may require that you use a special credit card number, have a certain transaction total or use some other information that will allow the gateway to identify the transaction as being run for testing purposes. Some payment gateways will have additional requirements for the use of 3-D Secure in test mode (like Worldpay Corporate - which requires you to specify the cardholder name for your test transactions as "3D" to enable 3-D Secure for them). It is always best to check with the customer service what data is required.



Managing your 3-D Secure system configuration in X-Payments 2.1 or later

To configure X-Payments to use 3-D Secure payer authentication via CardinalCommerce:

  1. Add and enable 3-D Secure for each payment configuration in your X-Payments installation that needs to use 3-D Secure via CardinalCommerce.
  2. In the details of all the online stores that will be using your 3-D Secure enabled payment configuration, specify the template that should be used for the 3-D Secure payer authentication step.


To add and enable 3-D Secure for a payment configuration:

  1. Go to the 'Payment Configurations' page (Settings -> Payment configurations) and locate the payment configuration for which you want to enable 3-D Secure payer authentication via CardinalCommerce. Click on the "3-D Secure: CardinalCommerce" link for this payment configuration. For example, if we want to configure 3-D Secure payer authentication for Authorize.Net AIM, we need to select this link:
    3d secure link 4 authorize net aim.png
    A page titled 'CardinalCommerce 3D-Secure configuration settings' opens:
